ポイプのCastle at Makahuena

チェックインしようとしたらオフィスらしき建物は閉まっていて電話してという貼り紙がドアにあっただけ。通りすがりの親切な方が電話してくれて部屋に入ることが出来た。次の日チェックインしようとしたらフロントが敷地内になく仕方なく電話したらポイプショアーズにあるとのこと。チェックインの必要はないようだったが、部屋のディスポーザーが壊れてたりセイフティボックスの鍵がなかったりしたので言いに行った。その時クリーンフィーを払ったが、冷蔵庫にはトマトが残ってたりタオルが足りなかったりでちゃんと掃除したのか疑問。ディスポーザーがなおったのは3日後、セイフティボックスの鍵はもらえずじまい。日本から行っているので自分たちの電話は使いたくない。電話を用意しておくかフロントの地図を張っておいて欲しかった。 部屋は広くて風通しがよく居心地良かったので残念。

カウアイマラソン参加のために7名で宿泊しました。体調管理のために自炊できるコンドをとのことで選びました。キッチンには充分な食器も揃っており、申し分なかったです。唯一困ったのは、包丁の切れ味。海外なのでこんなものかと納得していますが。。。部屋は清潔で、快適でした。管理事務所の営業時間外の早朝のチェックアウトとなりましたが、前日に対応していただきました。

あちこちメンテナンスが行き届かないところがあり、大きな民宿のような部屋でした。せめてバスのドアとリビングのカーテンの開閉はできるような状態であってほしかったと思います。

ホテルの場所はとにかく最高です。宿泊したのはオーシャンフロントで、モーニングコーヒーを飲みながらなんとクジラのジャンプが見ることができました。しかし、建物の老朽化は隠せません。2階の足音はよく聞こえるし、ラナイへ出る窓のサッシの戸車が壊れていてスムーズニ開きません。大人二人でやっとの思いで開けたとおもったら、今度は閉まりません。当然鍵も壊れていましたし、つっかえ棒で夜は寝ました。ハワイ13回目にしてはじめての経験でしたが、これもハワイスタイルと思い宿泊しました。やはり安いものには何かあるんですかね？

初めてのカウアイ島でこのコンドミニアムを利用しました。 ここを利用した理由は、 １．リーズナブル ２．場所（ポイプ） ３．部屋の広さ ４．ロケーション 等です。 いずれもほぼ満足できるコンドミニアムでした。 何しろ部屋から夕方にはクジラも見え夕日が何とも幻想的でした。 次回も是非利用したいと思います。 日本人の宿泊者はわが家族だけのようでした。 英語が喋れたほうが利用しやすいと思います。（当方は全然ダメでしたが）

The property itself was amazing and there are many updated units on the property which was built in the 70’s. Our unit which was larger so we could sleep 5 was very spacious and appears to be in a slow remodeling phase as we found a lot of lumber and pipes hidden in many dusty corners. Not the cleanest room upon arrival but definitely not worth me contacting anyone, which I never did. Everything was contactless and hassle free which we loved. The stairs were the real only complaint because they were not properly replaced and every step was extremely loud causing a lot of wake ups with two teenage boys in the house. The property was very nice and surrounded by the pacific with many enjoyable places to take in her power and beauty. Definitely could have been cleaner and possibly a little less being worked on but definitely fit our budget with the larger family.

Property is dated but functional No AC is a bit of a killer but with some effort we got enough air flow through the unit Some units do have ac so read the details carefully -I missed that

Excellent location to enjoy Poipu area, easily walkable to beach ( uphill return). We needed to keep front door open to get cool breeze into apartment. Would have appreciated aircon, however did know in advance that there wasn’t any. Property is well maintained including the pool and spa. Enjoy watching turtles in the surf! Would stay again.

We enjoyed the condo it is spacious, but it was really hot. If there was a security screen front door to open the air could come through with the sliders open. The kitchen window and the first bedrooms windows did not open. There are no fans in the bathrooms. The sliders were difficult to lock but there are dowels to place in the door tracks for security.

We stayed here for a week in an upper unit with an ocean view.(2204) It was so lovely to wake up and sit on the porch with such a nice view. Everything was easy from check in to check out. The pool was nice for an afternoon swim. It was very windy while we were there so that accounted for the comfortability in the space without air conditioning. Plus the fans in each room. The kitchen had a coffee maker, blender and lots of containers for our leftover foods when cooking at home. All in all I would stay here again.

This condo is a pleasant short walk to beach access. Good snorkeling nearby. Turtles and monk seals on the beach every day. Many come in for overnight resting. The condo we stayed in is managed by another resort down the road. They were very responsive to our needs. Ie: providing 2 more folding chairs for the patio, a pair of scissors, and rods to place in sliding doors and windows to secure at night. (As we were on the ground floor) But, most windows were difficult to open. Unfortunately, kitchen lacked adequate cookware, unless you like Teflon. Glassware mostly old and funky. The kitchen cupboard doors stick badly and are soiled at areas used to open them. Bathroom exhaust fan was not working. Light in laundry not working. The TV was small and poor sound due to location, no streaming service available. These issues cannot be addressed to the managers of the condo, as they fall onto “the owners” responsibility to correct. How to contact.’the owner’ is not clear….? The ceiling fans were spot on tho for keeping us comfortable 👍 and the pool and hot tub wonderful 😊

great place with plenty of room for the family and the view of the oceans and sunrise from the unit was great.

After reading some previous renters stories, our family was concerned for maintenance and noise issues. As well as condo cleanliness, and other issues. We contacted staff who were great with communication regarding our concerns. They answered all our questions. We arrived and everything that was stated on our booking page more than met our expectations. Our ocean view condo was amazing and we made a trip of a lifetime! We will definitely rebook in the future, mahalo!

The condo was close to the beach. You have to walk about 15 mins. The bed was a little hard, no AC and they didn’t have any spices in the kitchen which I felt was standard amenity. The cost for groceries is already high so any little thing left for use would have been great. With no AC, the master bedroom was left pretty hot at all times.

Construction starts at 6am weekdays and weekends. Dirt and dust everywhere and washer/dryer broken can’t even go on the balcony to enjoy the construction aka ocean views. Not sure why it wasn’t included information when we booked. It was a huge disappointment.

We booked last minute for an extended stay in Kauai. The condo was very comfortable with plenty room for everyone. the only drawback was the Lani was under repair and we were not allowed to use. I would also add a floor fan for the master bedroom. the management company was amazing with help checking in and out will definitely stay again.

Property is updated and need remodeling. There was issues with the toilet and dryer was not working properly. The place does not look like the pictures on the website.

Terrible!! My husband is a disabled vet. NO where did it say it was not ADA approved ! Smelled bad, no beach chairs, not even salt and pepper in the house. Forget cooking unless you want to buy everything down to spices. What use is the kitchen. No window covering on a few windows and they were at park I g lot level where anyone could see inside. The showers were horrible, dirty. The cabinets where literally falling apart. The liane was not usable. And they didn’t say a thing until the final payment was due. What use is an “ocean view” if you can’t sit out on the liane and enjoy it. Just looking out a window. DO NOT waste your money. The unit next door was under construction. The entire day was saws and hammers all day long. It was insulting to even think they wanted an outrageous amount of money for this unit. Disgusting

Funky door lock. Does not operate like most. Had to get help to open door the first time. Overall okay, but interior needs additional lighting - you must open all blinds and curtains to have enough lighting inside.

This unit doesn't have air conditioner but close to ocean.
